I married my wife on the day of the eclipse |
| [00:07.43] |
Our friends awarded her courage with gifts |
| [00:13.05] |
Now as the nights grow longer |
| [00:15.74] |
and the season shifts |
| [00:18.80] |
I look to my sorrowful wife |
| [00:23.86] |
Who is quietly tending her flowers |
| [00:29.42] |
Who is quietly tending her ..... |
| [00:34.15] |
|
| [00:38.27] |
The Sorrowful Wife |
| [00:42.82] |
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds |
| [00:48.83] |
|
| [01:17.46] |
The water is high on the beckoning river |
| [01:21.45] |
I made her a promise I could not deliver |
| [01:26.85] |
And the cry of the birds sends a terrible shiver |
| [01:32.30] |
Through me and my sorrowful wife |
| [01:37.23] |
Who is shifting the furniture around |
| [01:42.48] |
Who is shifting the furniture around |
| [01:48.82] |
|
| [02:27.21] |
Now we sit beneath the knotted Yew |
| [02:31.21] |
And the bluebells bob around our shoes |
| [02:36.66] |
The task of remembering the telltale clues |
| [02:42.11] |
Goes to my sorrowful wife |
| [02:46.62] |
Who is counting the days on her fingers |
| [02:52.11] |
Who is counting the days on her ..... |
| [02:57.61] |
|
| [03:06.68] |
Come on help me babe |
| [03:11.22] |
Come on now |
| [03:15.39] |
Come on help me babe |
| [03:20.34] |
I was the blind |
| [03:25.30] |
The grass here grows long and high |
| [03:28.14] |
Twists right up to the sky |
| [03:30.26] |
White clouds roll on by |
| [03:33.33] |
Come on now and help me babe |
| [03:40.43] |
I was blind |
| [03:44.66] |
I was a fool babe |
| [03:49.53] |
I was blind |
| [03:54.39] |
A loose wind last night blew down |
| [03:57.16] |
Black trees bent to the ground |
| [03:59.08] |
Their blossoms made such a sound |
| [04:02.57] |
That I could not hear myself think babe |
| [04:09.60] |
I was blind |
| [04:14.20] |
I was a fool babe |
| [04:18.12] |
I was a blind fool babe |
| [04:23.10] |
I was a fool babe |
| [04:27.87] |
I was blind babe |
| [04:32.25] |
|
